This will be utilized to grow the state under the guise of keeping people safe. Warrantless wire tapping, interception of emails, monitoring of bank activity, drones over American soil...expect all of it to be spoken highly of by the media and to be lapped up by an ignorant populace that Franklin would be ashamed of.

I think that dangerous backpack should be banned. Don't you just hate it when someone tries to hide things from you?Also ban pants with 4 pockets. Have a bill pass that allows only fanny packs with no zippers. That would illuminate the concealed carry option. Can't believe the dems haven't thought of that one.

However you look at it, it has to be a major blow to Obama that these young men aren't tea party individuals and republicans. Of course they have the press who can say what they want to make people believe otherwise.
